Understanding the different visualization approaches in OBIEE
First we will create a new Dashboard with four tabs In each tab we will use information from a
different report to develop an appropriate analysis which will be visually displayed through
charts
First Tab The following analyses will use four columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Customer
Type Lov Balance Eq Ref Date) This will display a graphic for each ldquoBranchrdquo and its afferent
ldquoCustomer Type Lovrdquo that will reveal the changes in Balance Eq on a yearly basis
Trellis
Definition A trellis presents multi-dimensional data laid out in a set of cells in a grid with each cell
displaying a subset of data shown as numbers or as graphs
Useful for - displaying multiple values all at once for comparison
- displaying data that reveals trends
Types -Simple Trellis - it displays a core inner graph multiplied across row sets and column sets
rendering many small multiples that are ideal for comparing and contrasting
-Advanced trellis view ndash it displays a grid of small spark graphs that are ideal for monitoring
trends and spotting patterns in data sets

Dr Eq) This will display a graphic for each ldquoCustomer Class Lovrdquo that will reveal the
changes in ldquoBalancerdquo ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo and ldquoAmt Dr Eqrdquo over time grouped by ldquoCurrencyrdquo
Definition Plots time series data It scales the horizontal axis based on the time that has elapsed
between data points The graph requires only one date or date-time data column to be selected on
the horizontal axis It has one vertical line that can support multiple data series
Useful for - spotting trends or patterns in time series data
26
- understanding the past and as well as predict the future
- understanding the cross correlation between two time series and the dependence of
one on another

Lovr) This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoBalance Eqrdquo over time with
bubbles sized by ldquoCustomer Type Lovrdquo and colored by ldquoCountryrdquo
32
Definition The Bubble graph is a variation of a scatter graph that displays data elements as circles
(bubbles) It shows three variables in two dimensions One value is represented by the location of the
circle on the horizontal axis another value is represented by the location of the circle on the vertical
axis and the final value is represented by the radius of the circle
Useful for - plotting data with three variables
- displaying financial data over a period

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Definition The Bubble graph is a variation of a scatter graph that displays data elements as circles
(bubbles) It shows three variables in two dimensions One value is represented by the location of the
circle on the horizontal axis another value is represented by the location of the circle on the vertical
axis and the final value is represented by the radius of the circle
Useful for - plotting data with three variables
- displaying financial data over a period

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data

(bubbles) It shows three variables in two dimensions One value is represented by the location of the
circle on the horizontal axis another value is represented by the location of the circle on the vertical
axis and the final value is represented by the radius of the circle
Useful for - plotting data with three variables
- displaying financial data over a period

Gauge
The following analyses will use two columns from the ldquoBalancesrdquo report (Branch Amt Cr Eq)
This will display a graphic that will reveal the changes in ldquoAmt Cr Eqrdquo for each ldquoBranchrdquo
Definition A Gauge view has a single data value Sometimes a gauge is more effective than a graph
for displaying a single data value because of its compact view Gauges identify problems in data A
gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whatever that point falls in an acceptable or
unacceptable range
Useful for -showing performance against goals
Types -Dial - shows data using a dial arc with one or more indicators that point to where the data
falls within predefined limits
-Horizontal Bar - shows data using a horizontal bar that changes color to indicate whether
the data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the horizontal bar shows the current level
of data against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Vertical Bar - shows data using a vertical bar that changes color to indicate whether the
data is within predefined limits The inner rectangle of the vertical bar shows the current level of data
against the ranges marked on an outer rectangle
-Bulb - Shows data using a circle that changes color to indicate whether the data is within
predefined limits Bulb gauges are useful when you need to know what the status is and not any
indication of a specific value or relative information about other threshold ranges
